Party like its my Birth-week

Every year I write a Post about how amazing my birthday is, and I usually think to myself... there is no way this can be topped. I have had some of the best birthday of my lifetime over the last couple years, and I give all the credit to my AMAZING friends and family.

This year I was a little worried, I no longer have roommates to plan some crazy surprise for me, So i figured it would be just another year older and wiser too, but it wasnt. I loved every minute of it.

We'll start it off with breakfast. My awesome brother Sam made me french toast, eggs, hash browns and a smoothie. It was delicious!

Then a couple hours into work my mom showed up with a vase of fresh flowers!


My co-workers surpised me with a gift certificate for the binding machine I want and A bag full of candy (which they wont help me eat because they are all off sugar or on some sort of a diet)


We went to Zupas for lunch, I LOVE that place!

My amazing friend Jessie put everything together that night, So we went to the Blue Lemon for dinner. (I think I love that place even more than zupas, which is saying something)




then we went bowling.. I think i bowled a 60-something, I am really good.


When you got a gutterball you had to 'ride the bull'. I got alot of those.

So I guess it really was a bit of an average birthday, but the fact that I am blessed to have such amazing people in my life made all the difference!


YESTERDAY.....

The party continued last night when Emilee, Jessie and I went to Logan for the night... I miss that place and the people so much.

We went to the tandoori oven first and started the night off right with some indian food.
The basketball game was AMAZING. I miss the crowd and the games and the cheers. It was a blast.


Then we went to Mardi Gras, Where my good friend Alan let me in for free. Woo-Hoo! We partied the night away in the casino and watching a mind blowing metalist show. It was the best night ever!

Jessie may or may not have become addicted to 21 that night. She won big.

But alas, I still need to remember that that is not my life anymore, that I live in kaysville and that my friends here are just as amazing as my friends in Logan. That Kaysville can be just as fun as Logan, it just takes a little more planning on our part. That living in the past is not good for your present or your future. That I could have just as many friends here if I just tried a little harder to make them. That Logan in no way defines who I am, it just happened to be where i was located when I really discovered myself.

Best week E.V.E.R.

SAR!!! Happy late birthday my dear. I'm so glad I got to see you on Saturday even though it was just for a second! I just wanted to say that I love the picture of you "riding the bull." Funny story...one time when I went bowling with Kody (Liz's cousin) he made us all do that too and I thought it was a Texan thing...so I'm glad that I'm not the only weirdo riding the bull. :)
And I have to agree with Logan, your birthday surprises are the best. HAHA! Oh man...last year was so great. Love you!
